Belichick, Patriots on verge of making NFL history

[gettlemanjack]

per Boston Globe:

-Bill Belichick has 218 career wins (regular season and playoffs combined), and can pass Paul Brown (222) and Curly Lambeau (229) to move into fourth place on the all-time list. He would trail just Tom Landry (270), George Halas (324), and Don Shula (347).

-With one playoff win, Belichick would become the all-time winningest coach in the postseason, tied with Tom Landry with 20 playoff victories each. Belichick is currently tied #2 with Don Shula with 19 playoff victories each

-The Patriots are seeking to become just the second team to win at least 10 games in 12 consecutive seasons. Only the 49ers (16 straight seasons from 1983-98) have accomplished the feat.

-Brady can become the sixth QB to throw for 50,000 career yards with 851 more. Brady just needs 176 yards to tie Warren Moon with the 6th most passing yards in history

Mike Shula is ruining that surname in football

Brees has a chance to be 3rd on that list.  With Peyton still playing I don't see him grabbing 2nd.
